Tubular Furniture

When it comes to the highest quality finish for tubular furniture, nothing adds the finishing touch and durability like electroplated Chromium!

In order to achieve this timeless finish, MacDermid technology is used at all the process stages . First the residue from the polishing operation must be removed. Our pretreatment Metex processes are designed to clean and activate the surface ready for the next operation, electroplated nickel.

Nickel can be plated either fully mirror bright or non reflective satin. Chromium plate is then applied over the nickel to give the excellent corrosion and abrasion resistant finish that is so easy to clean.

Today clear chromium is complimented by MacDermid's dark chromium electroplate. These finishes look stunning when complimented with lighter furnishing coverings, keeping chromium finishes up to date with today’s furniture trends!

Powder coating is also extensively for protecting and enhancing aluminum and steel furniture. Oxidite offers pretreatment and protection for all aluminum and its alloys, improving both adhesion of the organic layer. For ferrous metals Canphos phosphates provide an excellent key to ensure optimum adhesion for the powder coating.
